Given :

Lulu tells her little brother, Jack, that she is holding 20 coins, all of which are either dimes or quarters.

They have a value of $4.10. She says she will give him the coins if he can tell her how many of each she is holding.

To Find :

How many dimes and quarters in Lulu holding?

Solution :

4.10 dollar = 410 cents

Let, number of dimes and quarter are x and y.

So, x + y = 20    ...1)

Also, 10x + 25y = 410    ...2)  

Putting value of 1) in equation 2), we get :

10x + 25( 20 - x ) = 410

10x + 500 - 25x = 410

15x = 90

x = 6

y = 14

Therefore, number of dimes and quarters are 6 and 14 respectively.

Hence, this is the required solution.
